This prepared answer uses current CANNEX data delivered through AdvisorWorld. Products are ranked only within the scenario’s selected family and metric; MYGA guaranteed rates are never compared with FIA caps, participation rates, or income metrics.
Data date: July 16, 2026. A date appears only when the source supplies a verified refresh date; the time you view the page is never substituted.
